2001 Nissan Frontier SE Crewcab 4x4 review from North America
"Decent reliability but lousy resale"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far this truck has had no mechanical problems.
The drivers seat is splitting near the recline lever at around 40k miles, the dealer would not help since the warranty was up on the interior, I bought the Nissan seat covers to cover it. The seats are too thin and hard and not built as well as older XE style seats.
General comments?
This truck is underpowered for street driving, but OK for off road. Its too bad Nissan has waited till now to upgrade the engines power.
The ride is a little unsettled and firm, but it is a 4x4.
Overall not as nice as the Tundra, but OK if you don't need great acceleration and towing power.
I think the older hardbody style trucks were better built.
